	Brazil - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Brazil had been inhabited for at least 10,000 years by semi-nomadic populations when the first Portuguese explorers, led by Pedro Álvares Cabral disembarked in 1500.
		Brazil and its 26 states and Federal District are divided by IBGE into 5 distinctive regions: North, Northeast, Center-West, Southeast and South (Division by Regions).
		Brazil is characterized by the extensive low-lying Amazon Rainforest in the north, and a more open terrain of hills and (low) mountains to the south, home to most of Brazil's population and its agricultural base.

		Brazil faces a deep economic and social crisis due to its huge national debt, which consumes a disproportionate fraction of its GNP and is preventing much-needed investment and economic growth.
		The only clearly separated minority ethnic groups in Brazil are the various non-assimilated indigenous tribes, comprising less than 1% of the population, who live in officially delimited reservations and either avoid contact with "civilized" people, or have assimilated mainstream Brazilian culture to some extent but still constitute separate social and political communities.
		Brazil is the only Portuguese-speaking nation in the Americas, giving it a distinct national culture separate from its Spanish-speaking neighbors.

		There is about as much difference between the Portuguese spoken in Brazil and that spoken in Portugal as between the English spoken in the United States and that spoken in the United Kingdom.
		Within Brazil, there are no dialects of Portuguese, but only moderate regional variation in accent, vocabulary, and use of personal nouns, pronouns, and verb conjugations.
		Because of Brazil's size, self-sufficiency, and relative isolation, foreign languages are not widely spoken.

		Brazil should ideally be the first country to fight against any forces which would use the forest and its natural resources for improper gain and also leave the earth in a precarious position environmentally.

		This is the earliest photo relating to the use of a “communication device” by Brazilian troops, taken during the Paraguayan war of 1864-1870.
		Up to the end World War II the main communication device available for the company/battalion commander here was the stick rocket, like the ones used in World War I. Brazilian troops fighting in Italy were equipped like a normal US infantry division, though.
		It has a reasonable collection of electronic communication devices and I intended to mount an exhibition with them, but it is hard to get money for this (they are not weapons and the museum is a weaponry museum).

		By far the largest and most populous country in South America, Brazil overcame more than half a century of military intervention in the governance of the country when in 1985 the military regime peacefully ceded power to civilian rulers.
		From 2001-03 real wages fell and Brazil's economy grew, on average, only 2.2% per year, as the country absorbed a series of domestic and international economic shocks.
		That Brazil absorbed these shocks without financial collapse is a tribute to the resiliency of the Brazilian economy and the economic program put in place by former President CARDOSO and strengthened by President LULA DA SILVA.
